Abstract: We study the structure of Verma type modules of level zero induced from non-standard Borel subalgebras of an affine Kac-Moody algebra. For such modules in ``general position'' we describe the unique irreducible quotients, construct a BGG type resolution and prove the BGG duality in certain categories. All results are extended to generalized Verma type modules of zero level.
